Electricity supply
Ever since the first episode, there has been a lack of information about buildings, such as generators. There is no description of energy production or energy storage of the generator. You can find out about the maximum amount of energy after construction, by directly approaching the generator. At Below Zero we have a control room, it contains information about the energy produced and energy consumed. With several generators, their produced energy is not summed up. I built a solar panel, a bioreactor, a nuclear reactor, a thermal power plant on one base and the main power source is the bioreactor. How did this happen?

Because you have to understand that generators that aren't being drained don't produce anything.

So for instance, if you use a bioreator that produce 0.833 energy per second and you use 1 energy per second, the bioreator will be drained / generate an input ratio until it's fully drained and a second will be added to the input ratio. Etc.

I'm talking about a slightly different behavior model. I have 2 bioreactors. At the time of energy accumulation, their coefficient adds up and I see an energy gain of 1.6 even at 0.15 consumption,
this is understandable. At the same time, having a thermo, nucleo and bio reactor, at a flow rate of 1.5, there is an increase only due to the bioreactor +0.833, even at a flow rate above this value, which means that the generation levels of all generators do not participate in the final estimate of the arrival / consumption and are not calculated in any way if there are several different types of generators on the same base.

Yes because of what i said.

For instance, the nuclear reactor input is 4.16 energy per second, so if I have to guess it's just that the nuclear reactor had its battery full and therefore did not participate in the global input ratio until your needs deplete enough reactors for it to be called.
